Free gecko software for linux

Gecko Media Player is a browser plugin that uses GNOME MPlayer to play media in a browser.

The project should work with all browsers on Unix-ish systems(Linux, BSD, Solaris) and use the NS4 API (Mozilla, Firefox, Opera, etc.).

Gecko Media Player is in heavy development, but I wanted to get some code drops out there so that people can start using and testing it.

Galeon is a GNOME Web browser based on Gecko (the mozilla layout engine). Galeon is fast, it has a light interface, and it is fully standards-compliant.
This release is primarily to get some nice bug fixes out to everyone; Ive highlighted these below.
Its also one of the very few times where we didnt need to make any changes to account for new mozilla releases (of course, there are lots of changes to keep up with mozilla cvs).
Enhancements:
- This release will actually build against Mozilla 1.7.5+.

multicolumn is a Firefox extension that sllows web pages to be configured to display in multiple columns using Firefox 1.5 (Gecko 1.8) CSS property -moz-column-count, inspired by the draft CSS3 module: Multi-column layout. Make better use of high res screen real estate.

To see it in operation, install it, restart firefox, and then try visiting digg, slashdot, or google (for google, you need to do a search before youll see anything).

To change the number of columns to suit your screen or to configure it for another site, go into the settings tab (thin strip at the top of the browser window - click "more previews" above too see this highlighted on a screenshot).

Note that the tabs will only appear on sites which are configured (eg digg, slashdot, google).

To stop this extension from affecting a particular website, uncheck the relevant checkbox on the settings tab.

Further documentation is available on the settings tab.

CookiePie is a Firefox extension enabling you to maintain different cookies storage in different tabs and windows.
You can open multiple Gmail/Yahoo Mail accounts in different tabs and windows simulteanously. Developers can use CookiePie to test their Web software with different applications users without needing to open a different browser.
How I can use it?
Download it from: CookiePie Extension
Use the tab context menu to enable CookiePie
For example: Toogle CookiePie in three tabs, and login to different GMail account in both.
Where the idea came from?
We need to use it internally at Nektra, and finally decide to publish it for the community.
What does CookiePie means for the end user?
It means that you can for example open multiple GMail/Yahoo Mail/Hotmail accounts in different tabs and windows simulteanously.
What does CookiePie means for web developers?
Developers working on Web Software supporting multiple users or profiles can use CookiePie to simultaneusly test their software with each user without needing to open a different browser.
How CookiePie was made?
A first look at the FireFox extensions capabilities let us think this extension was almost impossible to do. One of the limitations was the unconnected parts between http transactions and UI being difficult to correlate an UI to a specific http request/response, more when AJAX/XmlHttpRequest (i.e: GMail) is involved.
The work involved mainly short term research and trying to push to the extreme FireFox capabilities without knowing nothing of Mozilla Extensions at the start of development.
Version restrictions:
- Gecko 1.8.1 has some implementation errors: FireFox store cookies although our http observer changes the response header. This means the common cookies are changed in the FireFox extensions for every transaction on each tab. More information at: Mozilla Bugzilla
- The reordering of tabs is breaking GMail account opened tabs.
- GMail has added after we finish this extension, an alert we hope to repair it so GMail doesnt know about another connection on another tab or window.
- User may experience problems with another Firefox extensions (for example Tab Mix Plus)

Requirements
In order to run or build the Shezhu Resource Sharing System you need some third-party software available on your machine.
Client
The client needs a modern web browser and the best browsers for this application are Firefox, Mozilla (including the Netscape branded equivalent and Gecko derivatives such as Galeon) and Microsoft Internet Explorer. The newest versions of all these browsers will work best. This application also works with the Konqueror and Opera browsers but these have some issues which may affect functionality. All browsers need JavaScript enabled. Any of these browsers may not work properly (or at all) depending on the operating system they are running under. Text based browsers (such as Lynx) are not supported.
For a comprehensive list of supported client browsers and operating systems refer to this browser compatibility chart from the most recent release of the application.
Server
The server needs recent versions of the Apache web server and the MySQL database server.
The server has only been tested on Redhat9 and FedoraCore3 Linux/i386 platforms although there is no specific reason why it should not work on other Linux platforms and distributions.
Development
Rebuilding this application from source requires a standard Unix development environment with the sh, make, cc, cpp, sed and awk utilities. Also required are RCS, Perl (5.6+) and the ImageMagick program. Also required is RPM to build a distribution. All these programs would probably come as standard in Linux distributions, other platforms may not have all of them by default.
Enhancements:
- This release adds support for Apache2 and multi-site installations, internal restructuring, a better installation tree, and improved access control management.
